When Hua Jinglan woke up, she found that she was in the green forest. Guai was leaning next to her to keep her warm. When she saw her waking up, he lowered his head and rubbed her arm.
Hua Jinglan sat up and looked around. In addition to the green grass, there was a creek a few meters away. The valley beside the creek was not wide, about five or six meters on both sides. Further up were the hillsides and rocks. She Just to the right of the creek.
Touching Glass's head, she looked at the mist-shrouded place like a fairyland, and murmured: "Glass, why did you bring me here?"
Glass snorted, suddenly raised his head and looked ahead warily, bared his teeth, and a heavy warning sound rolled out of his throat.
There was a voice in the grass, and Hua Jinglan suddenly raised her head, "Who?!"
A short figure walked out of the woods. Hua Jinglan looked at it carefully. When he got closer, he realized that it was a child of several years old. His clothes were disheveled, there were a few strands of grass in his hair, and his face was red. It was obvious that he had just been there. Played. Not far behind him followed a tiger-sized beast. Its fur was similar to that of a leopard, but unlike a leopard, it also had a pair of wings on its back!
"Who are you?" the child asked her condescendingly. Then he looked at the glass next to him and said with a smile, "It turns out to be a little mythical beast!"
A happy look flashed across Hua Jinglan's face, as expected, the ancient tribe of divine beasts lived here!
"Who are you? What are you doing here?" the child asked again.
"I'm here to ask for medicine. I'm not going to die soon, but I'm pregnant with a three-month-old child. I don't want to take him away with me, so I'm here to bother you." Hua Jinglan stood up and asked gently: "Can you Take me to meet your people?"
"Do you want the abortion method?" the child asked in a loud voice: "But the abortion method is extremely depleting of the mother's body. Once the child is born, you will definitely not survive."
Hua Jinglan didn't expect that this child actually knew how to induce pregnancy. She was startled and said quickly: "My body can't survive the day the child is born. This is the only way!"
The child seemed to be very interested in the glass. He looked at it for a while and then said, "Then if I tell you how to induce pregnancy, can you give me this little mythical beast?"
Hua Jinglan was stunned, never expecting that he would make such a request.
"Forget it!" The child turned to laugh, "I was just kidding you! The mythical beast will recognize its owner, it is yours, and it will not leave you unless you die."
Hua Jinglan breathed a sigh of relief and heard him say again: "Come with me!"
The child was the only person she met here, and Hua Jinglan could only follow him honestly even though she had doubts.
The mythical beast supported the two of them as they walked forward slowly, bypassing a mountain stream. The scenery in front of them suddenly became brighter. Although the clouds and mist in the sky did not disperse, it was much lighter than it was before. The thin sunlight shone in, bringing with it an unglamorous feeling. Warmth.
Hua Jinglan couldn't describe her mood, and she couldn't believe what she saw before her eyes. In the grass, in the mountains and forests, there were mythical beasts of all sizes. Their shapes and appearances were very similar to tigers and leopards, but they were much larger. More than half of them here The mythical beast has wings. The mythical beast had a calm posture, and was not surprised when it saw a stranger. It just took a leisurely glance and then went about doing whatever it was necessary to do.
This place is like a fairy city in a dream. How can humans and animals coexist peacefully? !
"Glass, this might be your home." She patted Glass's head and said happily.
Glass shook his head and followed the child in front of him without squinting.
"Don't touch them," the child turned around and said, "These little things look docile, but they are difficult to deal with once they are annoyed."
Hua Jinglan nodded repeatedly.
After walking for a few more minutes, the river beside me gradually widened. Houses made of bamboo and wood stood in the river valley. The forest stretched out a lot, which showed that many people lived here.
"Jah...!" A bird screamed in the sky astonishingly. Hua Jinglan raised her head and saw a giant blue phoenix, at least bigger than Pei Youyang!
"This is a divine phoenix. It has three eyes. It never gets close to anyone except tame people." The child said with a smile.
Hua Jinglan nodded blankly. Everything here seemed to have instantly overturned her world view. It was strange enough that spiritual beasts had existed for a long time, but she never expected that there were such magical creatures!
"Hongzhuang!" the child shouted to the woman playing the piccolo by the river.
The woman quickly stood up and ran over, arranging his clothes and saying, "Look at you, how did you get yourself into this again?!"
The woman named Hongzhuang turned her head and glanced at Hua Jinglan, specifically at the glass under her body. Suddenly her eyes lit up, and she rushed to her in a few steps, circling around the glass, and said excitedly: "This is just some kind of mythical beast. , this big guy hasn’t even grown a tail yet!”
She reached out to touch Guzi's butt, but Guzi avoided her and turned her head to look at her viciously.
Hongzhuang retracted her hand, and then the child said: "This sister is here to ask for help in inducing pregnancy."
Hongzhuang's face was slightly dull, she looked at Hua Jinglan and said, "Did the mythical beast bring you in?"
Hua Jinglan nodded, "Exactly."
"Let the elders prepare the medicine," the child said with a smile, "Since the mythical beast brought her here, it also wanted us to save the life of the child in her belly."
Hongzhuang nodded, "Okay then, girl, please follow me."
Hua Jinglan glanced at the child in surprise. After taking a few steps, she couldn't help but ask the person in front of her, "That child just now...?"
"That's the leader of our Suotian clan, Jiusuo." Hongzhuang said with a smile.
Clan leader? ! Hua Jinglan couldn't help but look at the child twice. At such a young age, he was actually the leader of the Divine Beast Clan? !
Seeing that she didn't believe it, Hongzhuang said: "The position of clan leader must be occupied by those who are capable. Besides, the clan leader has been taking care of the Divine Beast Clan for fifty years..."
"Wait!" Hua Jinglan's mind was a little confused and she said with difficulty: "You mean he is already fifty years old?"
Hongzhuang's smile grew wider, "Since you believe there is a method to induce pregnancy in this world, why don't you believe there is a method to preserve beauty?"
"But not everyone can use it," she continued, "just like this abortion method. If you are alive, you can save the fetus. If you are not alive, you may take the fetus with you during delivery." Together our souls return to the Nine Heavens."
Hua Jinglan suppressed her breath, abandoned the distracting thoughts in her mind, and said, "If God shows mercy, he will naturally keep my child."
Hongzhuang looked her over, pursed her lips and smiled, "Since the mythical beast guided you here, you can be considered a person loved by God. Please relax and follow me."
The buildings in the village are almost the same as those outside, which also proves that Wei Tianxiao is not completely disconnected from the outside world, but people from outside cannot come in.
Suddenly an outsider came, and the beast clan members came up to look at her. A child clapped his hands and shouted, "This sister is so beautiful!"
"Go, go!" Hongzhuang blasted the child away before pushing open a bamboo door and walking in.
"Elder, the patriarch wants to give this girl a medicine to induce pregnancy."
There were two old men with white beards sitting in the bamboo house. There was a chess game between them, obviously they were playing chess.
One of them turned around and glanced at Hua Jinglan, stroking his beard and said, "Go and collect the medicine. I'll prepare it later."
"You can sit wherever you like." Hongzhuang said to Hua Jinglan and went out.
Hua Jinglan helped her body to the side. Because the glass was too big, she could only stay outside. Obviously, the people of the mythical beast tribe are more interested in it. Both adults and children want to touch it, which makes the glass very uneasy.
For some reason, the two old men playing chess also stopped, and the bearded one said, "Is this your sacred beast?"
Hua Jinglan turned around and responded, "Yes."
"How long did it take for it to grow so big?" asked the short-bearded old man.
Hua Jinglan did the math and said, "About half a year."
The two exchanged glances, and the old man with a short beard added: "Girl, this mythical beast is extraordinary."
"How is it different from the mythical beasts in the valley of our predecessors?" Hua Jinglan couldn't help but ask.
The old man with a long beard shook his head, "It's not the same."
"Listen to the old man's words," the old man with a short beard said: "If the girl is not going to die soon, it is better to put this sacred beast in the dangerous sky to prevent it from going out to harm the world."
Hua Jinglan's heart sank. Glass had a criminal record. Now that it was going crazy, even Chun Yuyan couldn't stop it. It was time to consider where it would go.
"I heard from the noble clan leader that the sacred beast will not leave until after its owner dies. Since the two seniors are willing to help, after my death, they will definitely send someone to bring it to Weitianxiao, and I ask you to take good care of it."
The two old men nodded one after another. At this time, Hongzhuang also came back, holding several brightly colored flowers and plants in his hands, and also holding a round cup.
"The medicine has been collected. Elder, please prepare it."
The two old men picked the flowers and plants separately, weighed the amounts, and added a bottle of green juice similar to grass juice. But after a while, a strange fragrance filled the room.
The old man with a long beard came to Hua Jinglan with five colors of juice and said: "After taking this fetal medicine, the fetus will be enlarged to the size of seven months within one month. Will the girl be able to successfully give birth to the child by then? It just depends on fate.”
Hua Jinglan took it, looked at it intently for two seconds, and then drank it without frowning!
